Prevent and combat industrial cyber-attacks with industrial cybersecurity solutions
Prevent and combat industrial cyber-attacks with industrial cybersecurity solutions
Industrial cybersecurity is a crucial IT domain that secures industrial information systems. It involves studying potential attacks and threats to industrial information, identifying gaps, devising and implementing industrial cybersecurity solutions, and considerably mitigating risks.
During an attack, a security lapse, or a breach, the entire ecosystem of an enterprise could be compromised. An industrial cyber-attack can cause irreparable damage to the company’s data, infrastructure, and connected equipment. This makes industrial cybersecurity a critical aspect of any cyber-physical operation.
The IEC 62443 standards provide a structured approach to cybersecurity for all types of plants, facilities, and systems across industries to safeguard industrial communication networks. These standards apply to component suppliers, system integrators, and asset owners.
These standards ensure that all applicable security aspects are implemented in a structured manner through a set of defined process requirements. The IEC 62443 standards address all the stages: specification, integration, operation, maintenance, and decommissioning. Furthermore, these standards fortify the establishment of processes that facilitate all necessary technical security functions. Adapted to the relevant project scope, IEC 62443 security levels lay the foundations for cybersecurity robustness throughout the product and system lifetime.
The implementation of industrial cybersecurity certification can also boost the competitiveness of the supplier and system integrator. A third-party IEC 62443 certification demonstrates to manufacturers, asset owners, and operators that the component or system adheres to industry best practices for cybersecurity solutions.
BENEFITS OF IEC 62443 CYBERSECURITY WITH TÜV SÜD
Enhance cyber resilience of your products and systems through a structured approach to industrial security
Display your commitment to cybersecurity with the globally renowned cybersecurity certifications
Demonstrate your security capabilities by implementing IEC 62443 standard requirements and industry best practices
Suppliers, development teams, and system integrators worldwide partner with us to confirm their compliance with applicable process/product/system requirements as laid out in the standards. TÜV SÜD provides IEC 62443 risk assessment, testing, and evaluation to the IEC 62443 certification and certifies processes, products, and systems under the following Certification Schemes:
The ISASecure Certification program is based on the Industrial Automation and Control security lifecycle as defined in IEC 62443 standards, with additional requirements published in the ISASecure Certification specifications. Depending on the type of certification, vulnerability assessment may have to be performed before certification is granted.
TÜV SÜD PSB is an ISASecure Chartered Laboratory (License No. ISCI-CL0006) authorized by ISA Security Compliance Institute (ISCI), a not-for-profit automation controls industry consortium that manages the ISASecure conformance certification program.
We offer 3 types of certification with four security assurance levels (SAL) in alignment with IEC 62443 standards.
A company’s development process, component, or system that passes evaluation according to the latest version of ISASecure specifications will be granted with ISASecure certification by TÜV SÜD. The ISASecure Mark may be affixed on certified products and systems.
IECEE Certificates of Conformity are issued for processes/products/systems based on a one-off evaluation in accordance with the rules of the IECEE-CB Scheme. No marks or logo of TÜV SÜD are allowed on a certified product.
The IEC 62443 standards address security processes along the complete supply chain. TÜV SÜD mark provides certificates based on a set of security profiles from IEC 62443. Surveillance activities would be conducted to certificate owners to check if the compliance is maintained through the duration of certification.
For product suppliers, TÜV SÜD provides industrial cybersecurity certification services based on IEC 62443-4-1. The standard applies to the supplier’s overall security programs, and to the security processes connected to the development of the relevant component or control system.
Beside the generic process aspects during product development and system integration, the IEC 62443 standards specify technical security requirements to components and systems. These technical requirements are described in IEC 62443-4-2 and IEC 62443-3-3.
IEC 62443 TRAINING COURSE
All staff involved in a modern industrial system now require at least basic IT and OT security knowledge in order to recognise security problems and not endanger industrial operations through their behaviour. The training increases the participants' security awareness by communicating existing threats and current attack vectors. The IEC 62443 foundation course has been specially designed to enable industrial personnel to implement the most critical IT and OT security principles for a secure plant operation.
TÜV SÜD offers an IEC 62443 training programme tailored to industry needs. Through targeted industrial IT security training, you will be equipped with the necessary competency to design, maintain, and operate your plants safely and securely.
